Goodbye Mindanao: Aerial Shots of Makati and Taguig

There are a lot of high buildings and condominiums in Taguig,The Fort and Makati City. It was an awesome aerial shots of streets, express road, houses and buildings. A 2-hours flight from Davao City that turned to 2 hours and a half one. The pilot announced that there is something happening at the airport runway were on the top portion of Taguig and Makati due to airport traffic below of NAIA Terminal 3 in Pasay City.  I love it when I arrive and hate it when I leave the place where I enjoy and people the most unforgetable experience when you are traveling alone. Hoping for a more travel this coming year 2013.  Please check out my other blog post soon. Thanks you

I'm A Solo Traveler: End of Mindanao Trip

I much love taking up picture of the clouds and blue skies. Traveling alone can be scary and dangerous. Ive traveled solo all the way of my life and I love it. I would preffered not to travel with friends because we've made plans before and they all have restrictions. When traveling solo I can do whatever I want and plus I'm always making new friends where ever I go.  I love it and I'm always amazed the incredible people I meet along the way. I take an early flight bound to Manila. It was a 2 hours trip from Davao City. In the pictures below you can see the island of Camiguin and Cagayan De Oro City. A breathtaking view of the island at an altitude of 5000 feet above sea level. It was a great experience and accomplished my solo traveling from Davao City, Compostela Valley, Davao Oriental, Davao Del Sur , Davao Del Norte, Sarangani, South Cotabato and General Santos City.

Jack's Ridge Resort in Davao City by Night

This place was on my bucket list about 3 months ago when my friends and I traveled the island of samal but we can't able to drop by at Jack's Ridge Davao City that time because of some other reason and lack of time as well. When I finally booked flight last October 2012. I prefer to go during night time because it is situated on a hill overlooking and provides great view of Davao City downtown. Some other estaurant is very popular to Davao residents and tourists, the Taklobo Restaurant offers good foods and service. It has one of the best restaurants and is a favorite venue for weddings and other occasions. Its other amenities include a swimming pool, a playground for the kids, and also a billiard hall. There is a some other native restaurant, where every table overlooks the city of Davao and the atmosphere is very festive,calm and casual. You can find a lot of people taking pictures, eating with their friends and family.

I Love General Santos City

Fly to GenSan now! I really enjoyed and experienced the beauty, people and foods as well  and is a quiet yet developing city in Mindanao. This place was the modern touch that made us fall in love. I thought General Santos City was to be as boring as some of the other cities i’ve visited, but i discovered how wrong I was. I probably visit this place again and try other activities to offer. The best time to travel General Santos City is during their Tuna Festival Celebration from August to September. The festival highlight includes: Fishtahan sa Fishport, Tuna Float Parade, Tuna Float Display, Tuna Congress, Tuna Village. This activities is started during thier grand opening during their FunFare and FunEast. Maybe next year I can booked and go to GenSan for this activities. Happy Trip!

Roaming Around SM City Gensan

As part of my itinerary trip, I included the SM City General Santos for my last place to visit, unwind and shopping as well and buy souviner items like keychain and I love GenSan shirt. From lions beach resort I immediately went to SM Gensan at around 4:00pm. Then from there I took some photos at the back of the mall where you can find a very unique interior design of the mall. This mall is the 44th branch of SM Supermalls and the third biggest mall in Mindanao. There are a lot of restaurant, coffee shops, electronic appliance shops and clothing accesories. They have also a wide parking space for all customers and visitors. I like the fountain at the back of the mall, the wall is painted with a colored green apple and a blue highlight. The mall has a high ceiling and has five floor.

Lions Beach Resort in General Santos City

From General Santos City Fish Port, I took a motorcycle (habal-habal) about 15-20 minutes depending on traffic mode. I think this area need for rehabilitation and beautification. Located just at the downtown area, the park is pretty accessible for beach bums everywhere. This area is open for public and known to be the Queen Tuna Park of GenSan,close to their public market and attracts a lot of locals  and travelers who like to enjoy the waves to do their surfing and water ski-adventure.  Note: the tricycles and jeepneys are available on your way out to the city and this cost you about P10-15 pesos per passenger.
